Is it possible for Multiple forms responses (same questions) to one Sharepoint list

Evening all,

I am working on a project but do not have full control of the process, and to make it worse, people who want a certain end state do not understand power automation.

My question is: We have 5 MS forms, all with the same questions. Each form is given to a team in a different location around the UK; therefore, once it is triggered, we know which team it is. The question is, once each of these forms is triggered, will a flow write these to 1 SharePoint list? Or will the fact that we have 5 IDs the same make this an issue?

Or do we only have one form? Or do we use a flow to merge into one Excel spreadsheet and copy from that? I would rather try to shape the forms instead of trying to do a workaround, etc if i know it will not work.

I hope this makes sense

@Mick_gibbons1

If you want the trigger to be "When a form response is submitted", then you will need 5 flows. A flow can only be triggered by one form.

Alex, thank you. Yes, I thought that was the case, I was unsure if they would clash with each other as they write to the same SharePoint list. I have made 5 and will test it out.

Thank you for taking the time to answer my question
